My mistake in typing. User hasOne Profile, Profile belong to User, Profile hasOne State, State belongsTo Profile
User makes a Post where it puts some info from the his Users Profile (his name city and the state) But on his profile it's the full word California, in the post I would like CA so Pomona,CA rather than Pomona California.

Shouldn't it be sth like: User hasOne State, State belongsTo User? It should be enough to just have a state_id at your user table.
